Air Jordan III Seoul

February 28, 2018 - Created by Tinker Hatfield and Dan Sunwoo as a special project in Nike’s Innovation Kitchen, the Air Jordan III Seoul commemorates the 30-year anniversary of the city’s hosting of summer games and the moment Michael Jordan won the 1988 Slam Dunk Contest.

“I grew up a sneakerhead in Seoul and I wanted to create a shoe that pays homage to the creative energy of the city. Now is the perfect time, building on the momentum of the winter games and the love Korean consumers have for Jordan Brand,” says Sunwoo.

The Taegukgi (Korean flag) inspires the shoe’s overall color scheme, with the “taeguk” symbol expressed through the lining and collar’s blue and red and the white upper representing peace and purity (as it does on the flag). 서울 (Seoul) is featured on the left inner tongue, while the 1988 summer games motto 화합과 전진 (Harmony and Progress) is featured on the right inner tongue. The heel reads “Nike Air” in a clear nod to the original Air Jordan III.

The AJIII Seoul will go on sale March 10 on nike.com.kr and at the Jordan Hongdae store.

Nike x Carhartt WIP Collection

Established in 1989, Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) takes the rough and rugged spirit of original Carhartt work wear and refines and adapts it for a new audience — one appreciative of considered, durable garments, but also a contemporary design perspective. For this collection, core Carhartt WIP materials, such as Dearborn Canvas in Hamilton Brown and black and Camo Tiger Ripstop, are used to update signature Nike sneakers: the Air Force 1 Low, Vandal Supreme High, Air Force 1 Low Utility and Air Max 95.

The footwear drops December 6 via nike.com, the SNKRS and SNKEAKRS apps, as well as at select retailers.

Sheck Wes Curates the Inaugural NYC Editions Collection

November 15, 2018 - Harlem-born entertainer and athlete Sheck Wes is the inaugural curator of Nike’s new program, NYC Editions. The scheme celebrates New York City through partnerships with local creatives, allows the curators access to classic Nike silhouettes as a canvas for self-expression and relays homegrown stories.

With Wes, NYC Editions tips-off with a bicoastal flavor. He nods to his current life, split between NYC and LA, by finding commonality in a love for basketball.

Wes’s product assortment is highlighted by two footwear choices: An Air Max 95 and a Blazer Mid. Color schemes from both, which balance New York’s noteworthy orange and LA’s unmistakable purple, inform the Sheck Wes NYC Editions apparel. Within the mix are two T-shirts, a long sleeve T-shirt, hoodie, short and pant. All reflect Wes’s move from east to west, and capture a gritty graphic aesthetic.

Nike will celebrate the inaugural NYC Editions collection curated by Sheck Wes at Social Studies NYC. The footwear will be available November 16 at Nike stores and select retailers.
